Philosophy and creativity entwined

Current status of society: preferable

Ah the good old provoking title, always does it’s thing. In case any anarchists – or other forms of life – decided to take a peek around here, do not fear. I will explain my point as I go along.

On this little space in time I will argue with you that our current political and economical climate is most preferable. Ofcourse this is generally speaking, as there will always be tiny tids and bits that will not be loved, but in my mind, and that of probably a few others aswell, our current way of life is quite enjoyable, if you have the mindset for it. More goodie goodie lovejoy – I have no idea why I said that – after the jump.

You can go through life in an almost uncountable amount of ways, but there’s two big one’s that I want to talk about:
1. You find yourself burdened by everyday life, stuck to the never ending world in a very un-free sort of way. Freedom does not exist.
2. You praise yourself lucky and enjoy every day if you look at the bigger picture, always roaming in your creative mind. Freedom is all around.

And I guess, to more or less enjoy this society, you need a few points from number 2. If you have a few of those points, most preferably the soul deep feeling of freedom, I know you can understand why this form of society is so enjoyable. A lot of the people go through every day life with quite a bit of struggle, they find themselves chained in what they like to call ‘the rules’. There are no rules, if you want there to be no rules. Let’s say, for example, the fact that you legally need an identity card. Now, what would happen if I do not have an identity card, and just happily live life? Nothing, damn right nothing. Ofcourse you could say: and what if the police arrest you and you don’t have an identity card? I could, this is still an example, just say that I lost it prior to being arrested. Surely they would not believe me, but could not possible prove me wrong, they would just fine me a bill. A few weeks, or months, later I then would probably find a bill in my bus – haha -, saying that I need to pay a certain amount of money for not having an identity, and that if I would not pay, the fine would increase.

That is where I wanted to get: the ever increasing fines. You do not have to pay fines, ever. It may make your life harder, it may take your house away, it might even remove you from the governmental list of living people, but you can still do it, if you want.
People are free, and with such a minority of people in this society actually knowing that, it’s a blessing for those who do.
People are free, enjoy it my friends.
